Amount of pecans bought = 7.3 pounds

Caisha wants to sell 1 ounce bags each.

Now 1 pound = 16 ounces; means Caisha can sell 16 bags of pecans with 1 ounce in each bag.

So, with 7.3 pounds of pecans she will have =
7.3*16=116.8 ounces

So Caisha will sell 116 bags of pecans with 1 ounce in each bag.
